1. Re: [VA-CENSUS-LOOKUP] Parker FINKS of Madison Co VA b abt 1850 [1]
Hi Vince, I'm a little confused......the fellow I show with Mark FINKS in the 1870 census that is 15 yrs. old, is Porter MARTON -- not FINKS. Were you under the impression that this was Porter/Parker FINKS? I found Parker FINKS in 1870 with wife Martha living in Madison Co. He's indexed as Porter, but after looking at two different images for the page, I think the name is definitely Parker. Source Citation: Year: 1870 Census Place: Rapidan, Madison, Virginia Roll: M593_1662; Page: 72 Name: Po
2. Re: [VA-CENSUS-LOOKUP] Parker FINKS of Madison Co VA b abt 1850 [1]
Hi Vince, I didn't get any results for Parker FINK/FINKS any further back than the 1880 census where he's in Madison Co. with wife Martha and 4 children, including the 1 mo. old "Channy". Parker Finks 30, VA Martha Finks 30, VA James Finks 15, VA William Finks 8, VA Lelia Finks 2, VA Channy Finks 1M, VA However, I think I found Parker indexed as Porter FINK in the 1870 index. Looking at the census image, the name looks like Parker to me and little Maria must have died befor

A big thanks to two individuals. One may have wished to remain anonymous, but I thanked her! And Jennifer, thanks for the great transcriptions. BOMSEY! Man...

4. Re: [VA-CENSUS-LOOKUP] 1860/J.W. Siposs?/Albemarle County [1]
Michael, I couldn't find J.W. in the ancestry.index under the name Siposs or Sellers, but I got a clear image and J.W. is living alone. The name looks like it is written with the letter "f" in front of the double consonants as was common in that time frame, but I can't say for certain that the name is Sellers. It looks like the following: J.W. Sifsofs, 27, Jeweller, value of real estate: $1000, value of personal estate: $10,000, born VA Do you know what the occupation of your J.W. SE
5. Re: [VA-CENSUS-LOOKUP] CORRECTION ?? -- Lewis FINKS [1]
You are right. They are not the same person. I wonder if they are related at all - it seems mind-boggling that they would not be. One is Mark Franklin Finks, and the other is Mark Fisher Finks.

6. [VA-CENSUS-LOOKUP] 1870 Daniel BUMBRY Madison Co VA [1]
Folks, I've learned much. Now I'm trying to track down Nic(e)y Ann BUMBR(E)Y in 1870. She is listed with her husband and kids as being at Madison County, VA, in 1880. Daniel BUMBRY - aged 44 Nicy Ann BUMBRY - aged 30 Lewis BUMBRY - aged 13 Rosa BUMBRY - aged 11 Anna BUMBRY - aged 9 All are listed as born in Virginia, though I'm not so certain. I think sometimes a lazy enumerator would just love to make ditto marks. Here's a bit of the history of the BUMBRY name. Apparently it was English, and was BU
7. Re: [VA-CENSUS-LOOKUP] CORRECTION ?? -- Lewis FINKS [1]
Hi Vince, I jumped to a conclusion without checking out the facts. I have to revise my suspicion that the 22 yr. old Mark F. FINKS living with Lewis FINKS in the 1860 census, was the son of the 41 yr. old M.F. FINKS in Greene Co. in the 1860 census. I should have taken a look at the 1850 census first, before I jumped to conclusions. The 1850 census for Lewis FINKS shows a 12 yr. old Mark F. FINKS in the household so now I'm suspecting that the 22 yr. old Mark in the 1860 census is actually Le
8. Re: [VA-CENSUS-LOOKUP] Parker FINKS of Madison Co VA b abt 1850 [1]
This find of TRINKS is a bit o genius! Good find. I don't doubt you've got it. And the 11 year old would be Parker. He was born in 1849, I believe. So he was the slave of Lewis, right? Lewis was the father of Mark Franklin FINKS, born 1838. Now I doubt very much that Mark ever owned Parker. He could have in 1860, but I doubt it - just the overseer, methinks.

9. [VA-CENSUS-LOOKUP] Parker FINKS of Madison Co VA b abt 1850 [1]
Hi, I am trying to help a black friend of mine find more of his family. He told me of a family member named Channie. I found out that Channie's father was named Parker FINKS. Now Parker is readily found in a number of census back to 1870. His age is such that he was probably born circa 1850. So he should be possible to find for 1860! But that was a time of slavery, and he may be listed in some strange fashion, if at all. It may be that if he was a slave (likely), his master's name was FINKS or FINK,
10. Re: [VA-CENSUS-LOOKUP] Parker FINKS of Madison Co VA b abt 1850 [1]
Hi... Of course I remember you. Now I think you are on to something, and I have learned more from the time of the original post. I had thought that Parker FINKS might have a connection to S. H. FINKS (Simeon Hamilton FINKS it turns out), since he was on the same page in census once. But the age is wrong. They were both approximately the same age. If Parker was sired or owned originally by a FINKS, it more likely may have been Simeon's father, Lewis FINKS. Now Lewis was a farmer, and had an overseer on
11. Re: [VA-CENSUS-LOOKUP] Parker FINKS of Madison Co VA b abt 1850 [1]
Marilyn, Can you email me a copy of the image for TRINKS? This is the closest thing to date proving a connection of Parker to a specific FINKS.

13. [VA-CENSUS-LOOKUP] 1860/J.W. Siposs?/Albemarle County [1]
I'd like to request a lookup for the 1860 Census in Albemarle County. The name is indexed as "J.W. Siposs, age 27" and is on Series: M653, Roll: 1331, Page: 359. I have been looking for "John Wiklif Sellers" forever and a day, and I came across the abovementioned census page listing a J.W. Siposs, age 27. However, in trying to see if "Siposs" was instead "Sellers", I can't find "Siposs" anywhere on the page. The bottom of the page either is in horrendous shape or it was photocopied poorly. I viewed it
